Orphan Black: Echoes - anyone watching?

Anyone watching this series on AMC? It's a sci-fi thriller about the future and cloning humans. It's a sequel to the original Orphan Black series but has gone in a new direction.

 

Question:

 

Spoiler
Did Kira create an older version of Eleanor after Eleanor died post- brain tissue transplant?

Haven't watched it yet, but I've been recording the series. Those I know who are watching it have really liked it. I need to get started.

Yes, I have enjoyed watching it. I never got into the original series but from what I have gathered so far from watching Echoes is you really don't need to know all that happened before Echoes. Just a few key pieces and that's about it. Nothing really involved with the two shows' connections to each other. But I really need some clearing up about Eleanor.

I'm watching.   I'm enjoying it.  But it doesn't come close be as good as the original Orphan Black series.

@SilleeMee   I watched the original and I thought I saw this new version somewhere.

 

I haven't seen it yet but it sounds interesting.

 

More futuristic?

I agree.  No one on the new show comes close to the acting skills of Tatiana Maslany, she was amazing.
